A new kilt- And having been inspired by Hamish.

Looking at the photos used on their site, the prices, and also the wording one cannot help wonder if they are not part of the G**d B**s empire...

Also what is "polyviscose wool"?

But I do like the tartan design which incorporates all the colours in the "Draig Goch" flag of Wales.

Best of luck with the weight loss Arlen - someone told me yesterday that I had put on weight and I replied that the Isle of Skye kilt I was wearing fitted me in the same position over 12 months ago!

Now that is a great one. You must have been indignant.

As far as the wording on the site, I think they just plain don't know what they're talking about.
I've dealt with Gold brothers before and all their stock is dealt with in a central warehouse up north.
When I phoned to check that this company had got my payment I got the person who actually runs it and was pleasantly surprised by the great customer service.
Admittedly, I really quite like the Gold Brothers kilt I have, as much as I really don't like their trading methods.

I wasn't really that indignant

But strangely I do use how a kilt is fitting as a yardstick more than what my bathroom scales might say (they lie through their teeth anyway! )

As a diabetic I find losing weight difficult but then I don't gain much either so maybe I have reached some form of equilibrium...

I see that they are in Galashiels and can be visited so next time I am in that area I must pop in.

It's the GB trading methods I have the biggest problem with too Arlen - I have an 8 yard cotton camo kilt from them and I love it. They don't offer much in the way of 8 yard budget kilts though so maybe there is a difference there between GB and mytartan.com .

Yeah, GB just... they are a bit of a devouring monster and that is really a shame.
I was actually surprised when I got this kilt and it was an 8 yarder. I had really thought that the site were selling the usual casual kilts and just didn't know very much.
When it arrived and I saw all of those pleats my heart fluttered a little.
